Alexander Street Press brings together the skills of traditional publishing, librarianship, and software development to create quality electronic collections. We believe that an electronic publication should:
- Be carefully crafted by expert editors around a specific subject or discipline.
- Detail all materials relevant to the subject, whatever their original form or ownership.
- Contain as many of these materials as possible, in multiple formats if necessary.
- Be indexed with controlled vocabularies for precise, exhaustive searching.
- Provide unique ways of searching, viewing, exploring and analyzing the material.
- Facilitate contributions from scholars and librarians.
- Be priced to enable unlimited exploration by users.
We are creating a series of products using these values.
